Greensboro Montessori School Financial Aid

The Financial Aid Program at GMS is a need-based program which makes financial aid grants on a yearly basis to families with children enrolled in the Toddler through Middle School programs. Grants must be applied for separately each year.
Families interested in being considered for financial aid should contact the Admission Office in January to obtain an application from the office, including a "Family Guide to Financial Aid" brochure and a Parents’ Financial Statement form. The application is reviewed and processed by School and Student Service for Financial Aid or "SSS" which is sponsored by the National Association for Independent Schools (NAIS).

SSS will use the information provided to determine an Estimated Family Contribution for education. Factors considered in the process include family income and expenses, assets and indebtedness, family size, age of parents, and number of children attending tuition charging schools.

Applications require 2-3 weeks for processing and results will be mailed directly to GMS. Based on the report provided by SSS and the resources available at the school, the GMS Financial Aid Committee will make final determinations about individual financial aid awards. Financial Aid must be applied for annually.

Consult the Admission Office in January to learn about processing deadlines. Final decisions about Financial Aid grants will be made by the Head of School and Financial Aid Committee.
